In Deskari, strict rules are unshakable: the path to the Academy of Light is closed to a poor girl from the common people. The ancient statutes are enforced by Shadows — mysterious magic users without names or faces who test every candidate for “purity of blood” and loyalty to the rules. But what should be done by someone who has neither lineage nor connections, and whose dream is to learn more than fear? There is only one thing left — to trick the system. But sometimes dreams turn into trouble, especially when it stands behind them.

“Let me go…” she breathes out.

The leader presses the dagger’s handle against her chin, forcing her to raise her head.

“No, sweetheart. For your crime, you’ll pay.”
